[eurolisp] ELS'08 News!

[Pascal Costanza]

Hi everybody,

Here are some news about the upcoming 1st European Lisp Symposium,  
that will take place in Bordeaux/France on May 22-23, 2008. See http://prog.vub.ac.be/~pcostanza/els08/ 
  for up-to-date information about the symposium.

First of all, registration is now open to everybody, and you can  
register for the symposium and the accompanying social event at the  
symposium website.

There is no programme yet, because the paper submissions are currently  
still under review. (The programme will be announced in early April.)  
However, Marco Antoniotti has kindly accepted an invitation to give  
the keynote for the symposium. More details on his keynote talk will  
follow soon.

On a related note, the call for work-in-progress papers is still open.  
We have actually just extended the deadline to April 4, 2008 for  
submissions for this track. This is a great opportunity to get early  
feedback for your current projects from other researchers,  
practitioners and educators.

Finally, we have added two pages to the website about Bordeaux in  
general and an optional social event that you can additionally book  
when you register for the symposium: A whole-day visit of the atlantic  
coast on the Saturday immediately after the symposium, which includes  
a boat trip, a seafood and white wine tasting session, a lunch, and a  
trip to the Great Dune of Pyla, the highest sand dune in Europe. Don't  
forget your swimsuit, if climbing the 107 meters of the dune invites  
you to dive into the ocean!

More news to follow as they arrive.


Best,
Pascal
